Problems solved by technology

But, current CAR-mediated T cell responses do not realize the full potential of T cell activation and proliferation.
Such off-target effects could be very dangerous, particularly if the target antigen is found on other tissues, such as the heart or lung.
The cytokine storms associated with large numbers of activated T cell...

Construction of DARIC Binding and Signaling Components

[0297]The DARIC binding and signaling components were each separately cloned into a plasmid vector containing a T7 promoter, a hScn or hCD8 secretion signal, respectively, and a downstream linearization site. Linearized plasmids were then used as templates for in vitro transcription reactions, followed by 3′-polyadenylation and 5′-capping steps to create mature in vitro transcribed mRNA (IVT-mRNA) to be electroporated into primary human T cells. Human T cells were isolated from PBMCs by negative selection using paramagnetic beads and expanded with anti-CD3 / anti-CD28 beads for 48 hours prior to electroporation. Control electroporations using IVT-mRNA encoding fluorescent proteins were performed in parallel to confirm transfection efficiency, or 2A protein-linked fluorescent proteins were incorporated directly into the DARIC component mRNA species.

Cytotoxicity of T Cells Encoding DARIC Components

[0300]Recombinant T cells expressing the two DARIC components were incubated with K562 target cells (a human myeloid leukemia cell line), which were modified to express either CD19 or CD20 antigen, to examine target cell lysis. Briefly, T cells were co-incubated with a 50:50 mixture of K562-CD19 and K562-CD20 target cell lines, at 3:1 or 10:1 T cell to target cell ratios. In experimental samples, 500 nM final concentration of the hetero-bivalent rapalog AP21967 was added. The relative percentage of each of the target cell lines was monitored by flow cytometry staining for the CD19 and CD20 antigens to evaluate cell lysis (see FIG. 3).

[0301]Four samples of primary human T cells were prepared by electroporation with IVT-mRNA encoding (i) an extensively validated single-chain chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) (CD19-CAR, SEQ ID NO.:14, positive control); (ii) the DARIC signaling component only (DSC, SEQ ID NO.:16, negative control); iii) th...

Cytokine Secretion Profile of T Cells Encoding DARIC Components

[0304]Recombinant T cells expressing the two DARIC components were incubated with K562 target cells (a human myeloid leukemia cell line), which were modified to express either CD19 or CD20 antigen, to examine cytokine expression. Briefly, IVT-mRNA transfected T cells were co-incubated with either the K562-CD19 or K562-CD20 cell lines using T cell to target ratios of 1:1, with or without the addition of 500 nM AP21967. Supernatants were isolated for analysis of cytokine production (see FIG. 4).

[0305]Two samples of primary human T cells were isolated, expanded, and then prepared by electroporation with IVT-mRNA encoding either (i) the validated single-chain CAR (CD19-CAR, SEQ ID NO.:13, positive control); or (ii) both DARIC binding and signaling components (DSC, SEQ ID NO.: 16 plus DBC-CD19, SEQ ID NO.:2). After extensively washing the expanded and electroporated T cells to remove residual cytokines from the growth media, ...
